[SCRIPT] Enemy Patroling and Disapearing: Help!

[TeamSD]

AddEnemyPatrolNode("Monster_Grunt", "PathNodeAre_1", 2, "");

Is this supposed to be

AddEnemyPatrolNode("Monster_Grunt", "PathNodeArea_1", 2, "");

That is the name of a default pathnode. Unless you erased that last letter on purpose, it might cause the grunt to follow nothing. Just wondering.

You Can Delete The Collide area to create areanodes. you just add them right after you spawn the grunt like i did. I also Added Something to The void OnLeave() to help you. it will stop the music (if you have any) and fade it out when you exit the map to main menu or another map

haha, thanks! Also, very stupid question, how do you add music?

:| i feel stupid. haha, thanks very much, IT WORKS!!!!

[TeamSD]

Im glad it worked. Do not feel stupid. You have no idea how many times i've done similar grammar errors. They are hard to spot because they don't cause the game to crash. Nothing just happens and it is pain in the ass.


Here is a copypaste from engine scripts page for the music:

void PlayMusic(string& asMusicFile, bool abLoop, float afVolume, float afFadeTime, int alPrio, bool abResume);

Plays music.

asMusicFile - the music to play + extension .ogg

abLoop - determines whether a music track should loop

afVolume - volume of the music

afFadeTime - time in seconds until music reaches full volume

alPrio - priority of the music. Note that only the music with the highest priority can be heard! 0 - highest, 1 - lower, etc

If you need more help just say so.

Hey, if you or anyone else can help me out with this, I keep getting similar errors from last time.

The added part is where Basil (Monster) Is.

void byegrunt(string &in asTimer) appaers in your script twice. name the other one like this for example.

void byegrunt2(string &in asTimer)

void byegrunt(string &in asTimer) appaers in your script twice. name the other one like this for example.

void byegrunt2(string &in asTimer)

FATAL ERROR: Could not load script file

opon changing the void byegrunt(string &in asTimer) to
void byegrunt2(string &in asTimer)


You remembered to change:
AddTimer("monsterstart", 400.0f, "byegrunt");

to
AddTimer("monsterstart", 400.0f, "byegrunt2");

Yes I did. Everything worked out fine! Thanks to all!
